With my dad always out, struggling to work for us to always have food on the table and clothes on our bodies and my older brother always out doing things he wasn't supposed to do, we as a family never had time to talk about how our days went or what was on minds.

    It all started when my mother moved my family to Atlanta, Georgia with her new husband. In a way, this forced me to become closer to my stepdad, but in the end, I felt resentment toward my stepdad because he believes he can replace my father. Moving to Georgia, also meant moving away from my father, and being closer to my mother’s side of the family. It has had a negative impact on me because it also pushed me away from my father’s side of the family, and I haven’t gotten to know them as well as I know my mother’s side of the family. In a way, it was my mother’s fault for taking me away from my father, because she moved me at such a young age.…

    One day nearly two years ago, I came back from the worst trip and experience ever in my life. Three years ago, my family made the biggest decision of our lifetime together and we had decided to move. Now the fact that we were moving didn’t bother me or my little sister, it was just the simple fact that we were moving from our home that we had grown up in our entire life.

This Alabama home that we grew up in was very special to me and my sister but it wasn’t the one of best of places.

    Being a mother figure for my two younger siblings has not always been an easy task. Before I continue with my story, let me first introduce myself. My name is Bettye, with a "ye" and not just "y". My momma always told me to let people know exactly how my name was spelt, to let them know that I was different and not the typical Betty; that I was special and unique. This is one of the few pieces of advice I remember my mother sharing with me. I sometimes wonder if I am special and unique because I did not grow up in the typical household. My father, well I wish I knew I him. My momma told me that he couldn't handle the news of having a child and so when she was 8 months pregnant, he left us. After I was born, we moved to Atlanta, Georgia, because most of my mother's immediate family was there, and we have been here for the last 16 years.…

    At the beginning of the summer I had agreed to fly out to California to take my grandma’s place as a helping hand for my aunt. Gretchen had just married her third husband, Chris, two years prior and had recently become pregnant. My whole family was rather concerned with this matter because my aunt was now in her forties; when complications started arising my grandmother put her own life on hold to focus her attention on her daughter. When the time came, though, it was my turn to help my aunt. I left my job, friends, summer activities, and leisurely time to fly out to California and take care of my cousin. Plans were interrupted by my aunt’s job, though, when she received recent news of a promotion that would land her…

    I was born and raised in San Diego, California. Being one of three kids of a Navy family, I was well disciplined and well behaved, as were my brothers. In 2004 we moved from California to Texas, going from perfect weather every day to unpredictable weather all the time. Not only was the physical aspect a shock, but all preconceptions of Texas were blown out of the water by reality. The hardest part of the whole ordeal was leaving my dad in California for a few years. He would visit when he could, but visits were few and far between. I began to notice that the distance away was putting a lot of stress not just on the family, but my parents’ marriage. My older brother, Kameron, and I would talk about it and figure out a possible solution to restoring their relationship. Kaelen, the youngest of us three, was still oblivious to everything happening. Kaelen was just in fourth grade, Kameron a freshman, and me a seventh grader. Days would come and pass without speaking to our dad, and now I began to notice that it wasn’t just our parent’s relationship that suffered, but mine and my brothers as well. Kameron began staying out later and being mysterious; something he had never been. Kameron became hostile towards me and Kaelen, he would tell us that “if you tell mom, I will make it worse next time”. I loved my brother always, but he knew how to make it hard to like him. As Kameron progressed to become more and more like the typical teenager you read about, Kaelen and I began watching him fall out of trust with my parents. Because of distance and many unwarranted fights between my parents, they finally decided to divorce in 2007. My brothers and I all reacted differently. The youngest of us sealed off his emotions; he would not open up to anybody. Me, I was not afraid to show my emotion; or maybe I couldn’t keep them from showing. I was almost forced into counseling while my older…

    Seventeen years is the difference between my brother and I, and my sister is two years older than he is, so I guess you could say I was a “surprise” to my parents. During that gap of time my parents were struggling trying to take care of the family financially while still trying to raise two children. Unfortunately, they didn’t make it easy for them at all. My brother decided he was going to travel down the tough guy route, getting into fights constantly, dropping out of High School after two years, and overall acting like a rebel without a cause to me parents. My sister had the same rebellious attitude towards life, though she wasn’t tough and violent, but rather relaxed, high, and more hippie than anything else. My parents loved my brother and sister very much, but clearly they made life stressful and unnecessarily complicated. Even though they turned out ok in the end, with both of them being largely successful, I still get the sense that my parents, especially my mother, felt like they could’ve done a much better job.…
